We’re back after the international break, and the Jonaben Challenge continues.
In Week 3, Meta AI stepped in for the fans and gave a good fight.
It even nailed Chelsea’s 2-0 win over Fulham, earning a full 3 points.
But once again, I came out on top, adding to my streak.

🔎 Observations
Zubyken
Zubyken is confident with home teams. Out of 10 games, he’s backed 8 home wins.
He’s going bold with goals – a lot of 3–1 and 4–1 scorelines. That means he’s expecting plenty of attacking action this week.
Biggest calls:
West Ham to beat Spurs (2–1) – a risky one, since Spurs are usually favourites.
Bournemouth to beat Brighton (2–1) – another brave shout against a stronger opponent.
Safer picks:
Arsenal, Liverpool, and City all to win comfortably.
Chelsea away win at Brentford (1–3) – but still expecting goals conceded.
Tie-breaker: Predicting 36 total goals shows he’s expecting a high-scoring matchweek overall.
👉 Overall, the fan seems ambitious and attack-minded with his predictions, not playing it safe at all.
That could either give him a massive points haul… or leave him exposed if the games turn cagey.
Jonaben
Looking at my picks for this week, I’ve gone for Arsenal to edge Nottingham Forest 2–1, keeping it tight but still getting the job done.
I see Bournemouth and Brighton canceling each other out in a 2–2 draw, while Palace should have enough at home to get a 2–0 win over Sunderland.
For Everton, I’m backing them to outmuscle Aston Villa 2–0, while I expect Leeds to shock Fulham with a narrow 1–0 win.
Newcastle should prove too strong for Wolves in a 2–0 result.
The big clash between West Ham and Spurs, I’ve called it even with a 2–2 draw.
Chelsea, I believe, will handle Brentford with a 2–0 win, and Liverpool should continue their strong run by beating Burnley 3–1.
Finally, in the Manchester derby, I see City edging United 2–1.
👉 Overall, my predictions this week lean towards controlled wins and a couple of tight draws, rather than wild scorelines.
